I dont like the life like characters: Creepy!
I am very glad that there is another release of Be My Princess, but like what several others before me have said, the real life characters are rather uncanny and creepy. The character supposedly being Keith looks like a drug addict or someone whos going to kill me.
It would have been one thing if the ENTIRE game was set in a real life setting. Or even if the characters were animated (I do do like an animated version more). But to have a real life portrayal of a character set in an animated background clashes very horribly with the characters.
In any case, I disapprove of having real life portrayals of the characters. The allure of an otome game is to allow players to submerge into a fantasy world where players can get lost and enjoy the game. However, by having a real portrayal of a character, it robs us of our fantasy like world and makes it harder for us to cross the threshold to allow us to enjoy it.
Unless this game is changed back into an animated version or there is another release but with the animated character, I dont think this version of Be My Princess with life like characters is for me.
Despite all this, I am really looking forward to the new game of "Seduced in a Sleepless City" which appears to NOT be affiliated wit GREE and is also animated.
In the future, please do not partner up with GREE and stick with the animated style. Pirates in Love and My Forged Wedding are perfect examples and I would be more than happy to purchase further games created by you as long as you stick with your winning formula from Pirates in Love and My Forged Wedding.
